Ambika Dasi, a Colombian ISKCON devotee, has been practicing Sanatan Dharma for over a decade. She lived in Vrindavan for 10 years, sincerely rendering devotional service. Yet, devoted souls like her are still barred from entering the Jagannath Puri temple, simply because they were born in foreign bodies. It's... high time Puri opens its doors to such sincere devotees. Jai Jagannath! 🙏 #RathaYatra2025show more

Rules are made for a reason. Women have been following certain gurus and then after decades of living in ashrams they have gone and said, i was in a cult and trashed hinduism. Same with yoga etc. There are not one or two, but too many such cases. Who will take guarantee?

As they should be. We know what happened in earlier times when malechcha were allowed in prominent temples like ranganath temple. Dont try to destroy dharmic rules.

Foreigners following Sanatan Dharma are more devoted than seculars born in Bharat.

We should not change the rules which is set by our ancestors or else we want to say they were not wise enough to to take good decisions? I am from ISKCON but my whole foreigner friends respect this decision and they love Mahaprabhu so much. Jai Jagannath.

What a great Religion our Sanatan. Without allure of Money and Proselytising, Hinduism is really the most Peaceful Religion. What we need is only Good and Clean Political Leadership.🙏🙏

No Rules should be followed

Nope rule is rule , when if and only mahaprabhu decides it will change

>>Yet, devoted souls like her are still barred from entering the Jagannath Puri temple, simply because they were born in foreign bodies You should do some more homework about Puri temple & it's history particularly the attacks on temple, the sentiments thereafter and the rules.

Shrila Narayan maharaj and Shrila Phrabupad both said temples are for beginners. But you have to give up that attachment for real devotional service. Real service is in the heart not in a temple. That’s a formality duality.

Maybe opposed to ISKCON type rituals…only who Jagannath Prabhu wants will enter the temple…anyway the Prabhu will be coming out to bless all his devotees irrespective
